Phone: (212) 461-0245 Email: Sales@ancientsurfaces.com Website: www.AncientSurfaces.com Direct: www.AncientSurfaces.com/Foundation-Slabs.html Those centuries old foundation Slabs were once the thick building blocks of old villas & farmhouses. Those blocks could be found at the bottom support base of many older reclaimed structures. We are passionate about milling them down to 2.5" in thickness so they could be used on counters and pool copings. Yes counters! Those thick & massive chucks of Limestone absorb virtually nothing and can stand up to anything you can throw at them. Seemingly indestructible, they are ideal for anyone who is a great cook and who doesn’t want to worry about leaving wine rings, lime juice or oil stains on their counters while cooking or entertaining guests. If you practically live in your kitchen which is true for many of us, you have no choice but to consider incorporating the foundation slabs as your kitchen counter tops. Make your kitchen fun and enjoy the best counter tops available on earth by securing some of those slab cuts today. Our thick Foundation Slabs are also ideal for any stepping stone design elements for your outdoors stairs, as stepping or landscaping stones, or as wall and pool copings able to withstand any weather pattern or condition.

Fieldstone Landing with Bluestone Treads
This is an example of a traditional backyard landscaping in Boston.

Starting from bare sod, this backyard was fully excavated with geogrid installation for a solid engineered base before being transformed into a stunning multi-level outdoor living space. The patio and walkways were installed using Unilock Trevista pavers in Glacier Creek, paired with bold natural stone split-face steps for a dramatic level transition. The raised garden bed was built with Unilock Soho wall and Melville coping, and landscape lighting was integrated throughout for ambiance and safety after dark. A complete backyard transformation — engineered to last and built to impress.

When your project is in a natural or wooded setting, any stone is the perfect material choice for steps and walls. These stone slabs used for steps were cut for a more consistent stair height and width.

A second bluestone stepping stone path leads away from the back step to the diving rock and the deep end of the pool. Stepping stones allow you to leave some softspace (green grass, plantings etc.) so there's not too much hardscapes (concrete, pavers, etc.). www.deckandpatio.com
